Her first event did not have a single attendee, but her determination to make a positive impact in the lives of the people around her allowed her to continue promoting her efforts, and now has upwards of 70 people that get together monthly to make lunches, decorate the bags, and pass them out to the individuals facing hard times in our cities.

Someone's view of the world and the people in it can change with a simple meal, a beautiful message, and a conversation.
